Mark Webber isn't anticipating an overly emotional farewell from Formula 1 when he bows out at Sunday's Brazilian Grand Prix.

The 37-year-old Australian, who is making his 215th and final grand prix start at Interlagos before embarking on a career racing sportscars for Porsche, said he was happy to be moving on.

"Maybe tomorrow, when I get into the car for the last time, and I step out for the last time, that will be the most extreme case of emotions," Webber said.

"But as I said before, if the Kleenex is out then I've made the wrong decision. I'm happy with my last race coming and I'll do my best."

Speaking earlier in the week, Webber said that the final race of the season felt "normal". However, he admitted that his impending departure had finally started to sink in at Friday's drivers' briefing.

"The drivers' briefing was interesting, just because the guys gave me a very good reception. I had a little chat with them and that was nice because obviously they're the ones that you work so hard to compete against over 17 years and that means a lot to you," he said.

"That was quite touching. It was good to get a good reception off those guys - a lot of them I've actually raced at all my races. So that was a bit of a wake-up call and tomorrow a little bit more."
